The New York Tribune has interview
a large number of republican senators
and representatives, and finds that a
majority of them favor an extra session
ef aongrew. The only reason why they
want aw extra ion is that they are
afraid they will lore their slim majority
by death if oow i» not called. They are
not honest enaugfa to say so, however.
Gov. Foraker transmitted his menage

Public Roads.
Tbs subject of publio roads is undw
in several northern
The fore shore of Pennsylvania and Mas
attention to it in their
and it has been taken
of those stakes and of
Gov. Beaver attributes the
bad roads in Pennsylvania to the want
of system in the road Iowa, and the troub¬
le in New Jersey seems to be identical
with that in Pennsylvania. Gov. Ames
thinks that good roads could be secured
eventually*in Massachusetts if a state
road commissioner fere appointed with
authority to inspect the roads, and to
make snoh suggestions to the legislature
as he might think proper.
If, as has bean asserted, the civilization
of a country is indicated by its pnblis
roads, then civilization has not advanced
very greatly in Georgia. The roads of
this state are not kept in much better
condition than they were yean ago.
Great improvement has been mode in
them in some localities, but in all the
counties there is yet a very brood margin
for improvement. In fact the roads gener¬
ally are about as bad as they can be, con¬
sidering that they receive any attention
ataiL The trouble is not that we have
not sufficient road laws to make good
roads possible,, but that the laws are
not enforced. The work in most of the
counties is done during a few weeks of
the spring and fall, and it is not well
done. The aim of the overseen seems
to be to put the roads in such a condi¬
tion as will barely canne the work to be
aooepted by the commissioners, and the
commissioners have apparently found
out that the grand juries do nothing
more than to recommend in their gener¬
al presentiments that in future raoio at.
tention be given to the roads.
Tho subject of roads is one to which
the different Farmer’s Allianoes of the
state might give attention with entire
propriety and profit No class of peo¬
ple would be so greatly benefltted by
good roads as farmers. Good roads would
would lessen the injury to horses and
mules and the wear and tear of vehioles
and harness, and they would facilitate
travel and transportation. In addition
they would add very greatly to oomfort.
By united action the fanners might do
a great deal in this important matter.
It is gratifying to note that Georgia
appears to be waking up on the subject.
Several to
roads have been made lately, Ouo of
them is that oonviots l>e pnt to work on
tho roads in the counties in which they
are convicted, and another is that spec¬
ial county taxes for road purposes .)pe
levied, so that a road force, under a com¬
petent commissioner, may be kept at
work throughout tho year. Objections
have been urged to both plana, but it is
very ovident that in order to havo good
roads, repairs must bo made whenever
necessary, and without delay, and that
the work must bo almost? continual^ and
not at intervals of six months.—Savan¬

Last week the constitutional conven¬
tion of New Hampshire amended the
state constitution by a provision that no
person shall be eligible to citizenship
who cannot read the English language.
The NewfYork Sun is opposed to the
adoption of this policy, but the reason it
gives does not seem to water cover the
case It says that there are many foreign
born people in this oountry who cannot
read the’Engfish language, and who yet
make good citizens, The question is,
do they make good American citizens?
Foreigners who come here with the in¬
tention of becoming citizens usually serve
a term of probation, and it can be im¬
posing no great hardship on an intelli¬
gent man to insist that he be able to
speak and read the langnaga of his
adopted oountry.
Thore are very few German or French
born citizens in this oountry who cannot
rend the English language- But there is
a very dangerou element in tho west and
northwest which not only refuses to learn
to speak and write English, but will not
permit its children to do so. There are
Polish and Scandinavian settlements in
this country where English is rarely
heard, and where American citizenship
is ignored. It is from this dare that the
anarchists and socialists are drawn.
It is a class that refuses to assimilate
with our people and scorns our govern¬
ment and institutions. In omr opinion
Naw H a m ps hi re is on the right line.

Judge Albion W. Tourgee fa still writ¬
ing about tho South. Bo said lately:
“The South fa on the up-grade, not bo
oaoae her people believe in progress and
are willing to get behind and push, but
because the world is moving, and no
matter how heavily it hangs back in the
breeching the sooth must move toa The
progress of the south morally, intellectu
rily and materially, fa very largely the
result of •re friction with northern en
terprise, aspiration and sympathy, Nor
them capital, northern brain, and very
often northern brawn, have fought thoii
way through the crust of southern life,
and madrf unaccustomed stir among the
particles which, seems phenomenal to its
people. ” It fa true that the aonth fa on
the up-grad«v but it fa not true that
southern **opic do met believe in prog¬
ress and are unwilling to get behind and
ptuh. So oe of theirortbem people whe
haw oome aonth are yrogrsesive and en
erge^e, and have hatred to build np thi
auction, but in every htte ef bua>nc»
they are hionght into competition with
enterprising wide-awake ann industrion*
southern people. Some of the eueq

Jerseys in the South.
One of the rtfougest arguments used
by those who favor stock lavs is that
the natural molt of sach lavs would b«
the introduction of better grades of cat¬
tle. Now that many communities hare
stock lavs in fores a great many of their
people are experimenting with Jersey
cattle. If these experiments are intelli¬
gently conducted the result will be grat¬
ifying in every instance. In diacusasng
the value of Jersey cows, an expert
says:
“They do not snooeed veQ on sorub
oow fare. Well fed, well sheltered in
bad weather, well watered and kindly
treated, as all milch sows should be,
they are the queen of cows and the glo¬
ry of dairymen. They take th*e load of
all breeds of oovs as gilt-edge butter
cow s, cream cows. Their milk is the
richest and the best When the farm-!
ere of the Sooth shall have bams crowd-1
ed with the beet southern hay and pas¬
tures with rieh grasses, these states will
have millions of Jersey oowa, and the
finest dairies in the world, and gilt edge
winter grass hotter will sell at high fig¬
ures in northern markets when northern
pastures are covered with snow and bliz¬
zards sweep over northern farms.” |_
The Enquirer-Sun is glad to note a
steadily growing interest among the
farmers of the South upon this subject.
The Jersey oow is sarely winning her
way into their pastures and barnyards.—

The Chinese minister at Washington
has made himself conspicuous on several
oooasions lately. One was when he en¬
tered into a pleasant rivalry with Mr.
Blaine for the social honors at one of
the Chief Justioe Fuller’s receptions. A
few days later he attended a at Secretary
Bayard’s, and oomplained of having a
headache^ vited him to whereupon seat Mias comfortable Bayard in¬
a on a sofa
where he might be quiet for a short
while. The minister at onfte sank down
among the cushions, croasod one leg over
the other and clasped his left foot in his
hands. Then ho fell asleep, which was
a little more than the hostess had calcu¬
lated upon, and she took the liberty of
arousing him before his snores became
load enough to f>o kesrd throughout the
rooms, and of bundling him off to his
carriage. The minister probably had
fallen a victim to the American habit
of being too convivial at times. He
should suggest to his government that
it send a few missionaries to this coun¬
try.—Exchange

One Fact
Is worth a column of rhetorio, said an
American at ataman. It is a fact estab¬
lished by the testimony of thousands of
people, that Hood’s Sarsaparilla does
cure scrofula, salt rhenm, and other
diseases or affections arising from im¬
pure state, or low condition of the blood,
it‘also overcomes that tired feeling, cre¬
ates a good appetite, and gives strength
